Lake Tamblingan (Balinese: Danu Tamblingan ᬤᬦᬸᬢᬫ᭄ᬩᭂᬮᬶᬗᬦ᭄, Indonesian: Danau Tamblingan) is a caldera lake located in Buleleng Regency, Bali. The lake is located at the foot of Mount Lesung in Munduk administrative village, Banjar district, Buleleng Regency, Bali, Indonesia. The lake is one of the three lakes that ...

The power law is often used in wind power assessments [4] [5] where wind speeds at the height of a turbine ( 50 metres) must be estimated from near surface wind observations (~10 metres), or where wind speed data at various heights must be adjusted to a standard height [6] prior to use.
It is generally reported in METAR when the peak wind speed reaches at least 16 knots (30 km/h; 18 mph) and the variation in wind speed between the peaks and average wind is at least 9 to 10 knots (17 to 19 km/h; 10 to 12 mph). [1] [4] In marine meteorology, the top speed of a burst is expressed in meters per second (m/s) or in knots, while the ...
The fastest wind speed not related to tornadoes ever recorded was during the passage of Tropical Cyclone Olivia on 10 April 1996: an automatic weather station on Barrow Island, Australia, registered a maximum wind gust of 113.3 m/s (408 km/h; 253 mph; 220.2 kn; 372 ft/s) [6] [7] The wind gust was evaluated by the WMO Evaluation Panel, who found ...
The wind barb shows the speed using "flags" on the end. Each half of a flag depicts 5 knots (9.3 km/h; 5.8 mph) of wind. Each full flag depicts 10 knots (19 km/h; 12 mph) of wind. Each pennant (filled triangle) depicts 50 knots (93 km/h; 58 mph) of wind. [26] Winds are depicted as blowing from the direction the barb is facing.
Lake Singkarak (Indonesian: Danau Singkarak) is a lake in West Sumatra, Indonesia. It is located between the regencies of Tanah Datar and Solok Regency. It has an area of 107.8 km 2, being approximately 21 km long and 7 km wide. The natural outlet for excess water is the Ombilin River which flows eastward to the Strait of Malacca.
Similarly, for open terrain (grassland) the typical range is 0.01-0.05 m. [2] For cropland, and brush/forest the ranges are 0.1-0.25 m and 0.5-1.0 m respectively. When estimating wind loads on structures the terrains may be described as suburban or dense urban, for which the ranges are typically 0.1-0.5 m and 1-5 m respectively. [2]
